About this map

Independence Creek winds through the southern reaches of this Pecos County landscape, providing a rare riparian corridor in an otherwise arid drainage system. During the early 1980s, this area was defined by its resource extraction and logistical infrastructure, evidenced by numerous Gravel Pits, Wells, and Drill Holes scattered across the terrain. The central topographical feature, Rock House Draw, cuts diagonally across the quadrangle, serving as a primary watershed for the surrounding hills. Human activity is marked by industrial utility, including a prominent Pipeline and a Landing Strip situated between the draws. Remote landmarks like the Water Tank and various nameless tanks suggest a landscape primarily managed for ranching and energy exploration during this period of West Texas development.
